HAN SOLO and LEIA ORGANA-SOLO work - unwittingly - at cross-purposes to help refugees flooding in to the planet Duro from the Rim worlds where the dreaded Yuuzhan Vong aliens have invaded.

If he doesn't make the right choice, the future of his family - and possibly of the New Republic itself - hangs in the balance...
